Nobody suggested this was what Southwark was doing or planned to do. I responded to a reference, possibly in jest, to the words 'social cleansing' but the almost MAGA like supporters of the council respond to any reference to Council actions as if it's some form of indefensible attack on the object of their passions.
Southwark Council upgrades the public realm in Dulwich: this is disgusting favouritism for the rich! It's disgraceful!!!
Southwark Council upgrades the public realm in Peckham: this is disgusting social cleansing! It's disgraceful!!!
#SouthwarkDerangementSyndrome is real
By the way, aficionados of prostitution and drugs will be happy to hear they remain a problem in the streets south of King's Cross station, just as they were when I lived there prior to gentrification. (To be clear: they weren't a problem because of my presence). I'm sure that will be a great relief to some of our friends on here that are scared knocking down a derelict building will turn Peckham into Royal Tunbridge Wells overnight.
